"We cannot do this," I said shaking my head.
"What are you talking about! Of coarse we can, we- we can make this work Gabriela," Shayne said concerned.
"No this can't work. Even if we got through your dad, we've got my mom, and the council. Oh my gosh! What are they gonna say!"
"The Council? Who is the council," he asked hysterically. I sighed. Doesn't he know anything. They've killed enough of of us.
"It's a group of Fae (magical creatures) that make rules and approve mates."
"Approve mates?"
"Yeah, if your parents don't promise you, they wait till the relationship gets, well, you know, serious and then they evaluate you. If they approve you, you can stay together," I explained hastily.
"That doesn't really apply to us yet though unless....."
"Yeah Shayne, I'm already promised."
